Peter Obi@PeterObi·
Fellow Nigerians, good morning. I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you. Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances. We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal. More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism. We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power. Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise. Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them. However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building. Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated. And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions. There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline? Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from. Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

If I travel at 70mph on a traffic free motorway/highway, it will take me 411 days of non stop driving. That is about 1.1years of continuous driving without stopping. 😅😭 The Artemis ll crew were able to do this in just about 10days😮
NASA@NASA

After a journey of more than 690,000 miles, the crew is nearly home. The Artemis II crew will splash down off the coast of San Diego later today and, though it won’t be visible from land, you can still wave in their general direction to welcome them back to Earth! 👋

Kubernetes is beautiful. Every Concept Has a Story, you just don't know it yet. In k8s, you run your app as a pod. It runs your container. Then it crashes, and nobody restarts it. It is just gone. So you use a Deployment. One pod dies and another comes back. You want 3 running, it keeps 3 running. Every pod gets a new IP when it restarts. Another service needs to talk to your app but the IPs keep changing. You cannot hardcode them at scale. So you use a Service. One stable IP that always finds your pods using labels, not IPs. Pods die and come back. The Service does not care. But now you have 10 services and 10 load balancers. Your cloud bill does not care that 6 of them handle almost no traffic. So you use Ingress. One load balancer, all services behind it, smart routing. But Ingress is just rules and nobody executes them. So you add an Ingress Controller. Nginx, Traefik, AWS Load Balancer Controller. Now the rules actually work. Your app needs config so you hardcode it inside the container. Wrong database in staging. Wrong API key in production. You rebuild the image every time config changes. So you use a ConfigMap. Config lives outside the container and gets injected at runtime. Same image runs in dev, staging and production with different configs. But your database password is now sitting in a ConfigMap unencrypted. Anyone with basic kubectl access can read it. That is not a mistake. That is a security incident. So you use a Secret. Sensitive data stored separately with its own access controls. Your image never sees it. Some days 100 users, some days 10,000. You manually scale to 8 pods during the spike and watch them sit idle all night. You cannot babysit your cluster forever. So you use HPA. CPU crosses 70 percent and pods are added automatically. Traffic drops and they scale back down. You are not woken up at 2am anymore. But now your nodes are full and new pods sit in Pending state. HPA did its job. Your cluster had nowhere to put the pods. So you use Karpenter. Pods stuck in Pending and a new node appears automatically. Load drops and the node is removed. You only pay for what you actually use. One pod starts consuming 4GB of memory and nobody told Kubernetes it was not supposed to. It starves every other pod on that node and a cascade begins. One rogue pod with no limits takes down everything around it. So you use Resource Requests and Limits. Requests tell Kubernetes the minimum your pod needs to be scheduled. Limits make sure no pod can steal from everything around it. Your cluster runs predictably.

Kubernetes was built to solve Google-scale problems. You are not Google. You're a SaaS with 300 customers. Docker Compose would've been fine.

This is how Islam makes people defend sex with children. The reason he wants to lower the age of Mary in people’s minds is because he is trying to justify the fact that Mohammed had sex with a 9 year-old girl who, according to Islamic sources, still played with dolls at the time.
Daniel Haqiqatjou@Haqiqatjou

Christians claim that there is no evidence to suggest Mary was 12 when she became pregnant (a lie). But is there any evidence that she was not 9 years old? Why should we assume she wasn't?

Nigeria: Why is Sunday Jackson still in jail after all these years? The Christian’s only crime was defending his life from an armed Fulani Islamist who invaded his property and tried to kill him. Nigerian Christians are not expendable. Free Sunday Jackson.

The Nigerian government has repeatedly failed to respond to attacks or hold perpetrators accountable. Last month, a pastor in Plateau state warned of an impending Fulani attack. The Nigerian Army accused him of spreading fake news, and more than a dozen Christians were killed.

The US is overreaching and overreacting but it is the Nigerian Military that welcomed Zakir Naik at the Airport. He is a well-known Preacher of terrorism and is banned in the UK, Canada, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and wanted in India. He also met with the Sultan of Sokoto.
